Thanks very much for this.

But it seems that Mark was not the only child to survive. Anne who married Thomas Rushton lived to over 80, and had at least seven children, possibly more. Many of them died young too, but at least two, Ellwood Rushton and Yarker Rushton, married and had children of their own. I can give you more details if you are interested.

I do not know if Mark (son of Mark & Anne) marr Elizabeth. I agree he seems a bit young. Maybe he was baptised as a child & not a baby. There is another researcher I know who is descended from Mark & Elizabeth. She has gone through every Mark Ellwood with a fine tooth comb!! I'll see if I can find her details.

Gillian,I see that you are interested in the Parker family of Soulby.Does this include William Parker?I have a business letter that he wrote in 1848.I would be pleased to send you a transcript if it is of any interest.Cliff
